Maybe it won't get hot today, it was expected to be upper 90s, but it's not looking like it so far.

Once the clouds break and the sun comes out, its supposed to heat up like a motherfucker.

I just hope there are no rain and storms tomorrow when I'm there.

Interesting note: Cubs are the first team since 1996 to have back-to-back walkoff wins on pinch hits.

I'd rather see Barney in the bottom third of the lineup, but hopefully he'll see some good pitches to hit batting in front of Castro.

Would you rather see LeMahieu, Campana, Montanez and Hill in the lineup? Didn't think so.

Who else is gonna bat 2nd? Barney is the best option WHEN Castro is batting 3rd. Otherwise, I like Castro 2nd.

I'm still pumped from being at the game yesterday, lets get 3 in a row finally!

Who said anything about those guys playing?

Just slot everyone up 1 and bat Barney 8th.

Yea, I don't think anyone is saying Barney shouldn't be in the lineup at all, just not batting so high in the order.
